In 2025, the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has introduced a re-application facility through the 8171 portal for those who were previously declared ineligible. Many deserving women and families were excluded due to minor technical issues, incomplete surveys, or outdated records.
This article will guide you step-by-step on how to reapply, what documents are needed, and how to check your eligibility status online or through SMS.
🔄 What is the BISP Re-Application Program?
The BISP Ineligibility Registration 13500 is a second chance for women and low-income families who were marked ineligible earlier. The government now allows them to update records and reapply to receive the Rs. 13,500 quarterly payment under the Benazir Kafalat Program.
